The dealer informed me the recall COULD NOT be performed unless I first paid $708.31 out of pocket to replace both front ball joints. I was given no choice - pay or leave with the recall unresolved.

My wheel is not stable when I drive, it sticks, but at the same time car attempt to go to one side and, when I try to re-take my lane, the wheel is not smooth to the point that requires extra force to come back, and I feel I am going to invade the other line, this gets worse in long drives and warmer weather.

When driving my Honda 2024 Prologue there is a loud, persistent, clunking or popping sound whenever I turn. The dealership says it's related to the axle and/or the ball joint and there is no fix, neither is there a recall, so there is nothing they can, or will, do. This cannot be safe. When I'm driving at freeway speeds and go to turn into another lane to hear this clunking sound is very unnerv... Read more

Please get Honda to fix this obvious manufacturer defect so they wil... Read more
